Then multiple instances to print the PDF start, but the program does not allow this and I see error message pop-up in windows 10 "PDFtoPrinter.exe is already running. Please wait." In the end only one pdf gets printed.
I get problems with running 3 x pdfprinter.exe (pdfxcview.exe) at nearly same time. It might be because I use a new version of "pdfprinter.exe" from here : http://www.columbia.edu/~em36/pdftoprinter.html
Oh hey, sorry I didn't notice this sooner - thanks for reaching out!
I believe you're correct, there is a newer version of the PDFtoPrinter.exe program, which has introduced a new bug.
I'll look into this new version and make some updates when I get a chance. Currently on the hunt for a new job, so it might be a little bit before I can dig in. I hope you were able to make use of the script with the fix you applied!
Hello,
Your code is very good ! Great Job!
When I have an email with 3 pdf attachments:
Dok1.pdf
Dok2.pdf
Dok3.pdf

Here : http://www.columbia.edu/~em36/PDFtoPrinter.au3 I find: a piece of code:
Func Handle_MultipleInstance()
If _Singleton(StringReplace(@ScriptFullPath, '\', '/'), 1) = 0 Then
Local $sMsgBoxMsg = "PDFtoPrinter.exe is already running. Please wait."
If $cli = 0 Then
MsgBox(0, $msgTitle, $sMsgBoxMsg, 2)
Else
ConsoleWrite($sMsgBoxMsg)
EndIf
Exit
EndIf
EndFunc ;==>Handle_MultipleInstance
For testing I run the same code in batch file test.bat:
@echo on
"C:\Users\bgm\AppData\Local\Temp\PDFPrinterTmp\PDFXCview.exe" "/printto:&" "Schmierpapier" "C:\Users\bgm\Documents\OLAttachments\Dok1.pdf"
"C:\Users\bgm\AppData\Local\Temp\PDFPrinterTmp\PDFXCview.exe" "/printto:&" "Schmierpapier" "C:\Users\bgm\Documents\OLAttachments\Dok2.pdf"
"C:\Users\bgm\AppData\Local\Temp\PDFPrinterTmp\PDFXCview.exe" "/printto:&" "Schmierpapier" "C:\Users\bgm\Documents\OLAttachments\Dok3.pdf"
pause
It works without problems.
I have a workaround to slow down the VBA, but this is not perfect, because the waiting time is only an estimation:
Dim TimeEnd As Single
TimeEnd = Timer + 2
While Timer < TimeEnd
DoEvents
Wend
Best regards and thank you in advance.
